Damn that sucks dude. Is she at least going to foot the bill for repairs? I wouldn't necessarily believe her just because she says her insurance has run out in the last few days. She could just be trying to get out of paying her premuim. I'd get your insurance company to give her a call regarding the accident.

but realistically, i'd hazard a guess that he "might" turn your car away. he usually only does insurance work/prestige/euro work. your average kitted beast is not where he pitches himself in the marketplace so don't be offended if he says no....

As Amaru said, it all depends on how busy he is with the exotics. I know a stock (externally) S15 that was repaired there and my old Nissan Bluebird was fixed up by Tony.

So it doesn't hurt to find out.

well i went in to me mate at QBN..

he thinks the front bar might not be able to be fixed...

But he is gonna send it off to the "experts" but recons it gonna cost to get it patched up.. if it can even be done.

All else is good.

Thing is she pays for all parts labor for the front half of the car..

If i want the rest sprayed ill have to pay the difference..

I wanted the repray anyways.. so not too fussed, even know its money i didnt want to spend now.

Few more questions.. CF bonnet? where can i get one for for a good price? im goin to change the bonnet to CF as mine is unrepairable, and ill pay the difference.. Same might have to go for the front bar.. might need to source something else.

try just jap i think for carbon fibre... are 700ish BUT i think u also have to get some sort of adapter because they are GTR bonnets???

Click here

thats the page with bonnets and some bars on there...maybe get a fibreglass gtr bar, the CF bonnet and do some mod's to the bar to make it vertex style....cut off the bottom and then put the bottom lip from yours on.....it coudl maybe work hahah would look good i rekon!

click here

also the unique auto sports page with R32 stuff on it, but the bonnets are more expensive and the bars aren't to great cept the GTR ones! to get to that page go to product list then skyline GTST

hope this all helps mate

    • Plenty of modern cars run things like Varex exhausts, from HSV through to Ferrari. Their systems are usually setup so once you meet a certain condition (RPM seems to be the main kickover on the HSV from my experience) they automatically open. You could do the same some aftermarket ECU, IE, above X throttle, and X rpm, open the valve, otherwise shut, and then also have a switch to override it when you want a nice exhaust. On my boss' HSV Senator, I pulled the fuse on the variable exhaust, and that fails it into the permanently open position. He loved it, and was the exact amount of idle noise etc that he wanted from it, but didn't want to buy an exhaust for it incase it was droney or shit sounding.
    • I still haven't gotten around to fixing mine. Now the blend actuator has broken AGAIN. Twice in 20 years. tsk tsk.
    • I've not had issues with this for Shannons. It has been many years since I had a Skyline insured, but had things like the XR6T, and Subaru Liberty GTB. The most restrictive I've had is that it couldn't be parked on the road.
    • Coming home late at night and driving past the police is the only reason i need one haha And yeh, definitley needs a switch to quickly enable it, dont have time to be getting my phone, opening an app, waiting for it to update etc before being able to make the change
    • Because it is financially convenient for them lol. Why wouldn't they want to give you the lowest possible valuation for your car?
